Finished school with a 3 month old!

Jillian
I was in my last year of college working on an accounting degree when I got pregnant. So many people seemed to think school and pregnancy would be hard, but I didn't find it a problem at all. My last semester however I was scared, I was due a month after school started. I warned all my teachers but in my mind it would all go perfectly and I would only miss 2 weeks. Well my body was having none of that and I got preeclampsia and had to go on bed rest. Still I managed to only miss 3 1/2 weeks of school and returned full time at 11 days post partum. I even managed a 3.5 GPA for the semester. I couldn't have done it without my husband who brought the baby to school for 2 weeks so I could breastfeed between classes, or my teachers who let me be late pumping between classes. It was hard but if anyone says you can't succeed with a baby they are wrong.
